Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific Azure VM guides and documentation links before Linux equivalents, and by omitting explicit Linux-focused step-by-step examples or links. While the main migration example uses a Linux source host, the supporting links and references prioritize Windows resources, and there is a lack of parity in Linux-specific guidance or troubleshooting.
Recommendations
  • Include links to both Windows and Linux Azure VM quick start guides, ensuring Linux is represented equally.
  • Add explicit step-by-step migration examples for both Windows and Linux hosts, or clarify that the process applies to both with relevant OS-specific details.
  • Provide troubleshooting tips and verification steps for both Windows (e.g., using PowerShell or Windows tools) and Linux (e.g., using shell commands like iostat, lsblk, etc.).
  • Ensure that references to Azure VM documentation and best practices are balanced between Windows and Linux, or use neutral, cross-platform documentation where possible.
